Vegan Drinks is a monthly social gathering for anyone interested in meeting new people and connecting with others who share an interest in vegan living or are just curious about it! We meet on the last Friday of every month — and everyone’s welcome, whether you’re vegan or not. Bring your veg and non-veg friends along! Please note that only vegan food and drinks will be available for purchase. This month, shake off the winter blues and step into a fresh new season with a Spring Refresh vibe - think light, lively energy, great conversations, and a welcoming space to unwind and connect. Whether you're embracing new beginnings, chasing longer days, or just looking for a cozy night out, this is the perfect way to celebrate April in the city - an evening of vibrant Ethiopian flavours, refreshing drinks, and lively conversation at one of Toronto’s finest vegan restaurants. Reconnect with old friends or make new ones that might just light up your life! 🕖 Time: 7:00 PM – 10:00 PM 📍 Location: La Vegan Restaurant (https://www.laveganethiopian.com) 💸 Cover: None — just support our host by ordering some food or drinks! 👉 Check out their food menu and drinks list. Feeling playful? Lean into the season—florals, pastels, or just a fresh look are always welcome (but totally optional!). 💬 How It Works Come for the food, stay for the fun, and leave with new friends and great memories. We’ll have name tags ready, so no need to struggle remembering everyone’s name! Chat about your interests — from your favourite vegan dishes and restaurants to your passions for animals, the planet, or anything that sparks a great conversation. We can’t wait to see you there! 🌱

🎬 Let’s Go to the Movies (and Actually Talk… or Not) Whether you're a film nerd, popcorn enthusiast, or just looking for a chill night out with interesting people — this one's for you. We’re heading out to see a movie together, then grabbing food or drinks after. If the film's great (or terrible), we’ll probably talk about it forever. If it’s just okay, we’ll talk about it for 10 minutes and move on to everything else — books, dating apps, weird dreams, how Toronto keeps getting more expensive, etc. The vibe is relaxed, friendly, and not too serious. No film degree needed. No icebreakers. No pressure to “perform.” Just come enjoy the film, connect with some thoughtful people, and see where the night goes Click here to watch trailer! 🎞️ **Movie Title + Trailer:** [\[Click here to watch trailer!\]](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATGaqU6Srcc) 📖 **📖 Plot Summary:** Long-buried wounds rise to the surface when iconic pop star Mother Mary (Anne Hathaway) reunites with her estranged best friend and former costume designer Sam Anselm (Michaela Coel) on the eve of her comeback performance.
